Who’s Playing
Albany @ Boston College
Current Records: Albany 2-7; Boston College 6-4
What to Know
The Albany Great Danes will face off against the Boston College Eagles on the road at 8 p.m. ET Monday at Silvio O. Conte Forum. Albany will be seeking to avenge the 72-51 loss they suffered the last time these two teams played Dec. 10 of 2019.
The Great Danes escaped with a win this past Saturday against the Columbia Lions by the margin of a single free throw, 60-59.
Meanwhile, BC lost to the Saint Louis Billikens on the road by a decisive 79-68 margin. Boston College’s defeat came about despite a quality game from guard DeMarr Langford Jr., who had 14 points in addition to five rebounds.
Albany is the clear underdog, so they’re hoping it’s the size of the fight that determines this one. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the squad has let down bettors in their past four games.
Albany’s victory lifted them to 2-7 while Boston College’s loss dropped them down to 6-4. We’ll see if Albany can repeat their recent success or if BC bounces back and reverse their fortune.
